Artist Kang Won-jin, a winner of Hana Artverse, takes part
Kang Won-jin, a developmental disability artist and winner of the group’s flagship social contribution program, ‘Hana Artverse,’ joined the campaign to promote awareness of disabilities and spread a culture of inclusion. Kang received an excellence award at the 3rd Hana Artverse in 2024 and also took part in the ‘Hana Artverse Goods Donation Campaign’ in April 2026, helping produce items such as T-shirts and eco-friendly dishcloths. All proceeds from the sale of those goods were donated in full to support the social advancement and economic independence of artists with developmental disabilities.
